Recently the Sitecore PowerShell Team has been reflecting on the progress of the Sitecore PowerShell Extensions (SPE) module. We appreciate all the feedback and contributions from the community. Without the many great people in the community, the module just wouldn’t be where it is today. The team is proud of the accomplishments for a module developed purely by the community with no formal Sitecore support.

The new year has revealed some exciting news out on the Marketplace for SPE.

Code trivia

JavaScript 70.0% – this is mostly ACE editor that we use in ISE – our own JavaScript is somewhat minuscule in size

C# 27.8% – this is where all the magic happens

Other 2.2% – that would be PowerShell scripts and XML files.

There is a lot of other content in the repository but I’m assuming the statistics that GitHub generates are based on actionable language lines.

So maybe a better understanding would be taken from analysing the file numbers which look as follows:

Among those 470 items there are 135 scripts grouped into 13 modules provided as part of the platform mechanics providing example solutions and delivering educational value.

Committed team

We have 6 contributors that have committed 635 times to our repository to date. That’s not including the commits that we did when the module was still hosted on Trac (the previous community site) or Codeplex.

In the last month we’ve had, 2 authors pushing 75 commits to master and 111 commits to all branches. On master, 1,043 files have changed and there have been 125,591additions and 123,310deletions.

Thank you!

Again – we cannot express enough how much we appreciate the support from all of you using the module. Our thanks goes to everyone using and promoting it both on blogs and internally in your teams! It makes a great difference knowing that we have been able to make your life just a little bit easier.
